Colin Scott (born 1960) is an Australian former rugby league player. He played the game at fullback.
Several years' good service in Queensland’s state teams spring-boarded Wynnum-Manly's Colin Scott into the Australian Test side for the one-off match against New Zealand in 1983. Despite 25 appearances for his state during his career (including 18 State of Origin appearances), Scott did not represent Australia again. By the time the Broncos were admitted to the New South Wales Rugby League premiership, his top class career was all but over and he left the club after only one season.
In 2000, Scott was awarded the Australian Sports Medal for his contribution to Australia's international standing in rugby league.
